How about passing a socket's handle to one of the serpent's heads. See
(aSocket socketHandle) in #acceptFrom: of Socket.
That looks easy doable, (aSocket socketHandle) could be passed as a
constant bytearray, similiar to sending something to the #transcript or
#doIt channel, and the result of #acceptFrom: is totally controlled on the
serpent head's side.
Can you see any problem with this, OS-wise or other? If not I could give
it a try.
/Klaus
